Klappentext zu „The Book of Strange New Things “
Peter Leigh is a missionary called to go on the journey of a lifetime. Leaving behind his beloved wife, Bea, he boards a flight for a remote and unfamiliar land, a place where the locals are hungry for the teachings of the Bible. THE BOOK OF STRANGE NEW THINGS is a wildly original tale of adventure, faith and the ties that might hold two people together when they are worlds apart.

Pressezitat
Michel Faber's second masterpiece, quite different to The Crimson Petal and The White but every bit as luminescent and memorable. It is a portrait of a living, breathing relationship, frayed by distance. It is an enquiry into the mountains faith can move and the mountains faith can't move. It is maniacally gripping DAVID MITCHELL
